We don't have a season here, that I'm aware of, I wish we did. I noticed this evening that they are eating my apples. Hmmm the .308 maybe a little loud and maybe over kill!!

Thunderstorms at daybreak. Then it cleared up, but was windy as hell. I went anyway... Found a single gray. Single shot with the 22LR. I picked him up and said the hell with it. I will say that the Remington Yellow Jackets HPs did a number on him!

Our season don't open till beginning of october here. I'll agree that the only thing better than squirrel hunting is running hogs with the cur dogs....

http://www.snipershide.com/forum/ubbthre...139#Post1088139

does anyone hunt fox squirrels? i've been thinking about going on a fox squirrel hunt, i have to drive about 150 miles to where they start showing up, as my immediate area just has gray and red.

are they worth the drive and motel $?

Re: Squrriels '09........

Squirrel is the first fall hunting season to open up here in CT on September 1 every year. It's been a tradition with some buddies and me to go out that day every year just to finally be hunting something again. Always a great time and feels good to walk the woods with a rifle.

I'll meet you all back at the truck in the A.M. drinking my breakfast! Foot sucks and it's gonna be way to late by the time I get my ass back to God's country. I'll see if I can bring some more eggs and sausage and ice em down for the victory gathering! Hearts and livers anyone?

I've been getting a few lately. They are all over around here, running everywhere. I think squirrel tastes great, but my wife is not as big a fan as I am. I only kill a couple at a time since I'm the only one eating them.

Re: Squrriels '09........

I don't know anybody who hunts them here in Oregon. It's a shame as our Grey are twice the size of the ones In illinois where I grew up. I always thought that squirrel hunting was like " snipe hunting" you know the sack and the whistle at night kind of deal. I think it's neat that people really do it and seem to look forward to it. Look a little too much like a ground squirrel for my taste. This is just a hoot! I can't believe I thought it was a joke all these years. Jeff
